Product Info

The Bataleon Disaster Snowboard was raised in the streets and feels right at home in the park. It was designed with a wide waist for stability on jibs and upturned edges to abolish the risk of catching an edge in the landing. Soft in flex, but with tip-to-tail beech wood stringers for pop on the takeoff, the Bataleon Disaster Snowboard is the perfect board for the artsy jibber who pushes the envelope.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Jib 3BT
 This 3BT flavor is fine tuned for jibbing and park riding. Jib 3BT has the widest centerbase. The uplift angle is low and begins under the bindings to deliver a loose, buttery and forgiving feel without sacrificing control. The wide centerbase offers a nice and stable area to press, load up ollies and put down landings. Perfect for urban, jib and park driven riders.

Low Jib Camber

Flex

Shape

Twin Shape

Sidebase Uplift
 Tip: Low Uplift | Tail: Low Uplift

Core

Core Core
 Full poplar with beech hardwood laid tip to tail along the inserts to enhance the board's jib, jump and freestyle riding attributes. The added beech hardwood strengthens the board's backbone and puts out potent pop while still offering a comfortable lateral flex.

Laminates

Sidewalls

Solid Walls
 The go-to material for flex, weight savings, and durability along the edge.

Base

Super Slick X
 Not a basic extruded base. It has the highest molecular content available for an extruded base. That mean's it's super slick, durable and maintenance-free.

Topsheet

PLT Topsheet
 This finishing method means applying the topsheet after the board is pressed. This gives the board an ultra-slick finished look, and because the topsheet is pre-pressed it allows Bataleon to fine-tune the board's final flex pattern.

2 x 4 Inserts

Terrain

FreestyleFreestyle or park snowboards tend to be a bit shorter in length and love terrain parks, rails, jibs, trash cans, tree trunks, riding switch (non-dominant foot forward), wall rides and more. Freestyle boards often feature a true twin shape, and are typically selected by those looking to ride the terrain park. A more versatile variant of a freestyle board is the all-mountain freestyle, which combines the versatility of an all mountain snowboard with the playfulness of a freestyle snowboard.All-MountainAll-mountain snowboards are designed for exploring the whole mountain. They are your go-to for a snowboard that will do anything. They feel at home on groomers, powder, park runs and almost anything in between. The vast majority of snowboarders choose all-mountain boards for their great versatility. If you’re just getting started or unsure of exactly what you need, an all-mountain snowboard is a great choice.

Ability Level

Intermediate-Advanced
Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type

RockerA rocker board side profile is the opposite of a camber board, with a smooth downward curvature to it and less edge contact length when the board is weighted. Rocker boards float well in powder and pivot more easily underfoot. They also tend to be less “hooky” at both tip and tail and better for landing spin maneuvers when you don’t quite have enough rotation.

Flex Rating

SoftThe amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
